Since its creation more than twenty years ago, the Tai Chi for Arthritis program (by Dr. Paul Lam and his team) has been supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov) plus many health departments and arthritis foundations around the world. Tai Chi for Arthritis has been shown by studies to prevent falls. Australian and New Zealand government departments have utilized this program to prevent the elderly from falling. There are over thirty medical studies showing that it is effective for improving balance and reducing falls, as well as providing many other health benefits.

The DCV class is provided by a Tai Chi for Health Board Certified instructor.

NOTE: Due to the excessive heat in the afternoon hours, through the end of August, we are changing the class time to 10:00 AM and there will only be one session.
